great game but who is this guy saying its worthless November 15, 2007
First of all this game is not worthless like tommy said,he also said this game needs cheats well you have to work for the levels not cheat for them. Tommy also said the first level is hard and that is not true you just suck, the first level is so easy. My only complaint is that this game is easy even on medium mode and also it is to short. But its still a great game. I am a hard core Tony Hawk fan and have Tony Hawk pro skater 1-4,Underground 1 and 2, American wasteland,and project 8 so you should get them all
Tony Hawk Underground 2 May 17, 2007
I bought this game for my son and he absolutely LOVES playing it...my daughter likes it too. The one thing that I don't like is some of the language the characters use.
Here's the Scoop December 21, 2006
I own 4 of the Tony Hawk games. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4, and Tony Hawk's Underground 2. I would have to say, this is surely the ugliest of the bunch, with many more rough goals and strange humor. The kid in the wheelchair is disturbing, the goals are sometimes a little off the wall, and the skaters will go to any means for a good practical joke. On the other hand, the gameplay is simply addictive, as I seem to get stuck playing it for up to 4 hours at a time.
So I guess if you are 15 or over, and enjoy the Tony Hawk games, this is a no brainer. It's just plain, excellent gameplay, and that's all there is to it.
All in all, this game is a positive playing experience, every bit as good as the Pro Skater series!
 This game is DA BOMB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! November 23, 2006

This game is awesome. SERIOUSLY! Its got a bit of blood in it when you crash. Some of the songs have a few bad words in it. But oh well. :P
I got hooked on this game for 4 months. Then I beat the game. It has awesome graphics. You can even get off your board and spray your own tag xD
Its got killer songs. If your a Rock fan you should seriously buy this game. It has songs by Jimmy Eat World, The Explosions, and a few others.
I've blocked out the rap songs just because I don't like rap. :P Then they've got a few oldies. Like Frank Sanatra and Johnny Cash.
You can even make your own tricks! The more flips and ollies you put in there, the higher the points! But they're really hard to land. You'd have to get some major air to pull it off.
The story line is the best. You get "abducted" by 2 "masked" men while your showing off in your neighborhood. You wake up and sitting next to you are the biggest skater stars in the world! Then one of the masked men pulls out a chainsaw and almost stabs you. ROFL. But it turns out to be Bam Margera (aka The Idiot lol) Then Tony Hawk pops up and explains this whole "World Destruction Tour" You have to complete all these goals to get major points. You pass through like 6 major cities: (in Order of game)
Boston, Barcelona, Berlin, Australia, New Orleans, and Skatetopia (I don't know if Skatetopia is real or not :P)
But while your pulling off some major air in the Story Mode, you gotta destroy stuff. DUH!
Overall this is a seriously awesome game. GO BUY IT!
 Capitalizing on Bam was a bad idea. July 1, 2006

I have owned every single Tony Hawk game, and played each one a ton. I thought the THPS's were great, but after beating THUG on easy and normal, my opinion was that it was the best so far. I loved the level of customization. So when THUG2 rolled around I was excited. After playing through easy modes on classic and story, I was dissapointed. "World Destruction Tour"? Destruction of the series, that is.
In story mode, Bam is the main focal point. Goals consist of exploding/vandalizing/breaking buildings/cars/people, a la Viva la Bam. Tony seems like a supporting character in a role he doesn't belong in. Also, advancing yourself up to a pro level and your friend stealing your glory in THUG made a true enemy in Eric. But there's no drive to complete your goals besides destruction in 2.
Also, there's no vehicle option, as in THUG. Instead, there are 3 extra characters for each level, and one has some sort of mobile device besides a skateboard. These characters are difficult to control, and the goals are annoying. The option of a car was way better.
One of the few good points in THUG2 was the level of customation. It had all THUG had and more. I actually had fun creating a graphic, and the create a trick is just as good as THUGs.
This game was the worst in the series HANDS-DOWN. I would take THPS1 over this any day. I have not yet played THAW, but I've heard it was bad. I can only hope Project 8 will redeem the series.
